Asia’s most respected Anti-Corruption Congress is once again taking place in Hong Kong in January 2010, delivering an action-packed four day, business-focused programme, dealing with managing bribery risks (public & commercial), corporate fraud and mitigating individual liability under the FCPA.
Managing your corruption, fraud & anti-money laundering risks and mitigation strategies in Asia
By attending the morning workshop, you will gain a full update on global anti-corruption provisions, including the FCPA and regional anti-corruption laws from across Asia. Discover the emerging risks you are exposed to in each region, the challenges of being subject to laws in multiple jurisdictions – and how to overcome them.
Furthermore, you will gain expert guidance on the intersections between money laundering and corruption and how to integrate your anti corruption, fraud and AML programmes to achieve best practice compliance and, should be need arise, be able to conduct an investigation to satisfy the different legal regimes.
